The infield of a baseball field is created with three bases and home plate. These four
"corners" are 90 feet from one another.
After a baseball player hits the ball, the play-
er travels counterclockwise from home
plate, to 1st base, to 2nd base, 3rd base,
and back to home plate,
The distance from 1st base to 3rd base is
equal to the distance between 2nd base and
home plate
Classify the type of quadrilateral that the infield forms. Why is it important that the baseball
infield is created as this quadrilateral?
